Time for the weekly update:
2 news set of signatures and avatar , finishing this project based on the song ''mado kara mieru'' from the album Calling all dawns by Christopher Tim:

The whole project:

Spoiler for mado kara mieru/ artwork from goto-p:

Spoiler for mado kara mieru/ unseen face, trying to match both time and age of the quote.:

And for the freebies, insted of my usual Touhou ones, I made those with the best material than I got for my project but than I didn't use, somehow it could be considered as a prolongation of it. Signatures are still modifiables.

@ Patchy, finishing a set isn't much difficult, starting it ( findnig the right ideas and materials) is usualy harder. Usualy because for the next serie, there's a outside factor than still worry me...

Just a general comment rather than specific CnC but the thing that I love the most about your works is the concept piece; the fact that you have an overaching theme or maxim that you want to communicate in each sig. I honestly feel that you are probably one of the only people on AS that puts effort into concept (I certainly don't ). I think if you worked on communicating the ideology or meaning of the poems that you put into sigs via effects rather than just text (so say the poem talks about the dreary nature of life, use dull colors, have lots ot negative space...etc), your art would be absolutely breathtaking After all, a picture is worth a thousand words no?

^ To be honest, I think than you are mistaken on some part. I do try to follow some kind of concept for each serie, but I don't try to communicate something in each of them . I use different aproach for each serie; sometime I pick up a theme than go well to the text ( next serie will go that way), other time I put more importance to fit each strophe... sometime I ut more importance to the way the sig look than the text.

There's one factor than often give me problem: finding the right material . With the right material I might be abble to do more, but relying only on danbooru and safebooru for picture...

@ Patchy. Yeah, we could say than I am lurking around danbooru a bit... I did pass sometime hours to search the right picture to go with the right strophe, sometime with poor result.
For this current set, I did go to nude/ almost nude but not necessairely sexy material. I wanted good artwork but also opportunitu to experiment and use differents ( but not necessairely completely different) styles and methods. So, the choice was to pick al pictures by differents artists.
And about the Cirno signature, yes it's supposed to be the Scarlet Mansion.

I actually like the idea of the partially nude and the quotes that go with them. Not because I'm a perv or like naked women, but because of the artistic quality to them. And the tastefulness, they're not blatantly sexy. Nice work as always, and on the freebies too.
